Come Grow With Us!
We love
growing things: flowers, vegetables, fruits and friendships! We share

love to garden and feel it is important to take care of our small part
of the earth.
Celebrate Earth Day with Las Flores Community Garden!
The Las Flores Community Garden will have a booth at the Thousand Oaks Earth/Arbor Day event on Saturday, April 13. Our knowledgeable gardeners will be talking to people about our garden and how a community garden works. Bring the kids! We will be offering face painting for children. We will also be selling starts: young vegetable, herb, and flower plants ready for you to take home and plant in your garden. Purchasing a start is an inexpensive way to get a jump into your summer planting. And you won’t have to carry them around all day: we are happy to hold your purchases at the booth until you are ready to leave. We even have garden-enriching worms for sale to help you get your young plants off to a good start. We hope to see you there!

What Is a Community Garden?
A community garden is a place where individuals, couples, teachers, and families come together to raise fruits, vegetables, flowers, and herbs. We rent plots and share our knowledge and experiences. We are a nonprofit organization and we abide by garden by-laws, city ordinances, and common courtesies. Garden members have the exclusive use of their garden plots along with the shared responsibility for the overall garden site.
